Page 16 | Buyers want wheelie bins included.. after discount

Sellthishousetorhosecunts · 2024-05-16T22:09:36+00:00

Our lovely FTB 🙄have requested wheelie bins be included after generous discount… many unreasonable requests met! AIBU to leave dead nan ashes under the floorboards & take the wheel bins as a summer plunge pool for the kids 🫣

PrincessTeaSet · 17/05/2024 07:05

This situation is entirely of your making. You didn't have to agree to their offer or agree to sell to them at all. The fact that you did suggests there weren't queues of people wanting to pay more. So why do you think they are cheeky

This has got to be a piss take, no one take a wheelie bin with them.

Or use them as ‘plunge pool for the kids’ ffs!

Wtf - who pays money for bins and leaves them to greedy buyers!? I would rather ship them off to moody Doris 3 doors down than leave them full of our shit by donating the time, effort and money it took me to order them. Then Doris can tell them I thought they was cheeky fuckers and enjoy not composing her sour grapes

Wth.

LiquoriceAllsorts2 · 17/05/2024 07:02

Wheelie bins provided by the council, belong to the house (well technically probably the council but provided specifically for that house). You can’t take them with you

Wolfpa · 17/05/2024 07:02

Wheelie bins are left as standard your reaction is unreasonable. As far as leaving your Nan’s ashes under the floorboards no one cares they will just go with the rest of the dust there

Why would your neighbour want 2 sets of bins and why would she want to get involved in your petty behaviour towards her new neighbours? Chances are she would give them back as soon as new neighbours move in. Also she might not turn out to be as moody once you've gone!

sarahc336 · 17/05/2024 07:02

I've never heard of anyone taking the bins, surely everyone just leaves them and you get the new bin and at new house?

PotatoPudding · 17/05/2024 07:02

Where I live, the bins are owned by the council but maintained by the occupant. We only own the brown bins, which we pay for ourselves.

NigelHarmansNewWife · 17/05/2024 07:01

@Strictlymad - when we moved into our last house, some of the light fittings had been removed, leaving bare wires, not just the bulbs. Luckily we had some lamps.

AGlinnerOfHope · 17/05/2024 07:01

I thought DM was the most unreasonable woman in the world when she insisted on taking her own bins to the new house, and returning the new house’s bins to the old house.

Clearly I was wrong.

mynamechangemyrules · 17/05/2024 07:00

I can't believe I'm moved to comment on this, but that's how petty my life has become 😂
My parents live in a 'non wheelie bin' area and were fed up with the foxes raiding their rubbish, so they bought wheelie bins to store bags- they have to lift bags out for bin days! So the bins are theirs. But even in that situation I feel that the bins now 'belong' to the house as it's very situation specific the whole bin situ, non..?! So they'd leave them.
YABU

I’ve never heard of paying for bins before? I thought they belonged to council? And I’m sure contract says (I know ours did) that by law you must leave lightbulbs! Our seller took hers and we moved in in January in the dark!

I've only ever heard of paying when replacing the original that's gone missing/been damaged beyond use and the council has already provided a free replacement to which the same thing has happened. Where we are you can get an additional bin for garden waste for free but pay extra council tax for it to be emptied.

2024istheyearforme · 17/05/2024 06:57

The wheelie bins aren't yours. They belong to the council that lease them to the house. Yes you leave them when leaving a property

NigelHarmansNewWife · 17/05/2024 06:57

I think you need to let it go - the negativity is radiating from your posts and it won't be doing you any good. Leave the bloody bins and move on. Literally.

I want info on what the buyers have done to piss you off so much. You are literally seething.

You sound like the people my friend bought her flat from, they took the door handles, light bulbs and light switches. Their biggest dick move however was to try and charge her £500 for an ancient free standing fridge. She refused but said she'd be happy for them to leave it if they didn't want it.

Tne day she moved it she found it dumped in the back garden with the door half ripped off.

Isn't there usually a fixtures and fittings list? Door handles and light switches would surely be on it. And usually it's vacant possession so they could be charged for removal of the fridge. Bizarre

MrsDoubtfire3000 · 17/05/2024 06:52

You sound lovely

PrincessTeaSet · 17/05/2024 06:51

Sellthishousetorhosecunts · 16/05/2024 23:44

I’m loving that taking my wheelie bin is unreasonable but popping a teaspoon of nans ashes underneath the floorboards to haunt the tight fuckers hasn’t picked up on…

Show quote history

The only one who cares about your nans ashes is you. They won't even know it's there. I think it's disrespectful to your nan if anything. You are coming across as rather strange

boozeclues · 17/05/2024 06:50

I don’t even understand the logistics of taking the bins when you move! What if moving day is the day before bin day and they are full of two weeks worth of shite.

I wouldn’t give a shit if ashes where left under the floorboards, but my house is over a hundred years old so I imagine a few people have died here over the years…

I might take the original beams when I a moved, they are rather lovely 🤣🤣🤣

The wheelie bins stay with the property. They aren't yours, they belong to the council. Where do you do live if you believe they go with you?

Normally I’d totally agree with you but our council have told me I have to pay for a new one as the one at the current property is missing 🤦

Roselilly36 · 17/05/2024 06:46

I bought my wheelie bin, but it wouldn’t have occurred to me to take it when we moved. That’s so tight.

CelesteCunningham · 17/05/2024 06:45

StormingNorman · 17/05/2024 00:16

You pay round our way. £50 per bin or £25 for the little compost bin. Still wouldn’t take them with me though.

Show quote history

Same. Previous owner left hers and then over time the green bin needed to be replaced so we had to pay something in the £50-£100 range for a new one. Would never occur to me to bring it with me if we moved though!

Maybe you should check what your sellers are doing OP, you pettiness could leave you with two sets of bins to store.

HerkyBaby · 17/05/2024 06:42

if you are moving to somewhere in the same area just make sure that the bins in your new home are the same size as the ones you are leaving behind. General waste bins have been drastically reduced in size where I live so old sized general waste bins are looked upon as a bit of an asset. If this is the case just swop them.

Crochetpenguin · 17/05/2024 06:41

In my area you have to buy a recycling bin from the council. Think about £30. We took it with us when we moved a few streets away. Had we moved to a different council with different coloured bins we probably would have left it.
